A twenty-six-minute film containing clips of Olympic trials and prospects in Lake Tahoe, 1968. The film features footage of Harrison Dillard, one of only three males (as of 2018) to win Olympic titles in both sprinting and hurdling events. Another film highlight is an interview conducted with Evelyn Ashford, who would later win several gold medals throughout her track career. Ashford would also become one of the oldest women to win gold during an Olympic track and field event. (HD scan coming soon!)
